Prosecutors use grand jury as investigation of Andrew McCabe intensifies
Washington Post ^ | september 6 2018 | Matt Zopotosky

Federal prosecutors have for months been using a grand jury to investigate former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe — an indication the probe into whether he misled officials exploring his role in a controversial media disclosure has intensified, two people familiar with the matter said.

The grand jury has summoned more than one witness, the people said, and the case is ongoing. The people declined to identify those who had been called to testify.

The presence of the grand jury shows prosecutors are treating the matter seriously, locking in the accounts of witnesses who might later have to testify at a trial. But such panels are sometimes used only as investigative tools, and it remains unclear if McCabe will ultimately be charged.

Please let it begin.

McCabe, Yates, Comey, Lynch, et al need to have severe consequences or this will continue.

A DC grand jury will find that mccabe should recieve the Congressional Medal of Honor for attempting to save America from Trump. /I wish this was sarcasm.

whether he misled officials

Who cares about lying to officials? How about treason, sedition and obstruction of justice.

Reads like WaPo propaganda designed to save the current Deep State configuration of the DOJ and the FBI, before Trump fires them.

We already knew that the USAO-DC was investigating McCabe after the referral from the IG for allegedly false statements regarding leaks to the press.

The fact that it was referred to Jesse Liu and not John Huber back then signaled to some of us that John Huber was not investigating anything. He was merely “evaluating” issues and Jeff Sessions mentioning him was meant as a way to stiff-arm members of Congress and the public calling for a second Special Counsel to investigate the obvious widespread criminal wrongdoing in the FBI and DOJ with respect to abuse of power in using intelligence and law enforcement tools for political purposes.

So this new WaPo piece is probably part of a new effort to stop momentum for a second Special Counsel as more indications of wrongdoing come out regarding Bruce Ohr and his beautiful wife Nellie and others.

One Witness?

You mean they didn’t raid his Lawyer’s offices and do a 3:00 am raid at his house?

This is simply the WAPO being enlisted to sell a real Investigation, and they’ll claim the Grand Jury declined to prosecute, when, in reality, they recommend to the GJ not to indict.

The DoJ is just attempting to pawn off the the Non-Indictment on a GJ.
Nothing more.

And Q is a damned HOAX, whom far too many very gullible people have fallen for!

Huber has done NOTHING and besides which he has NO power at all anyway.

"Trust Sessions" is also stupid beyond belief! Yeah...TRUST SESSIONS TO NOT DO THE JOB HE WAS HIRED TO DO!

Yep, the grand jury is just a smokescreen to say “nothing new here”.
